A vocal pop excursion...

(4 out of 5 stars)

""Three Minute Hurcules" is a vocal pop excursion into the world of XTC, Squeeze, Super Deluxe, and even the Beach Boys. These are hook-and-harmony laden tunes. "What You See" has very raw (Peter Buck produced) guitars. Tube top amplifiers are used throughout (hence the name, and the warm analog sound.) Analog sound also shines in "M.I.A," for which a Roland Juno 6 was used. A lot of the songs are about relationship mishaps."

Play it till the top comes off!

"This is a very good power pop CD from the rhythm section of the Posies with additional members on vocals and guitar. A one off CD collaboration.It gets better with each listen. It won't change your life but it will make your day."
